Jaguar’s New 4-Cylinder Engines Revealed

XE_Powertrain

 

Before we get into the details of Jaguar's new lineup of modular 4-cylinder engines, let us rejoice. There will be a manual transmission available.

In addition to an 8-speed automatic, the new 2.0L gasoline and diesel I4 engines will be available with a 6-speed manual gearbox, marking the first stick-shift Jag since the X-Type.

The gasoline engines will come in two trims, displacing 197 horsepower and 206 lb-ft of torque, or 236 horsepower and 250 lb-ft. The diesels will offer 161 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, or 177 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. The "lower end" diesel will also output under 100 grams of CO2 and return 75 mpg on the European cycle, which should help it be an attractive choice in the all-important company car market, while also dodging CO2-based taxes in certain world markets. Aside from the recently revealed Jaguar XE, these new engines will also appear in other Jaguar Land Rover products in the near future.
